Psst..whatcha doin to my user page? :P GlassCobra 21:09, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Ooh! Very nice, I like it a lot! Thank you! :D GlassCobra 21:15, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

It's awesome! Thank you so much! Haha, look, here's the diff between the very first draft of my page and yours. Only a difference of 9.6 kB, no big deal. ;) GlassCobra 21:55, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Thank you!

		The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
		I'm so glad you've decided to come back to us! My great new page was definitely worth the wait :D For being a fantastic Wikipedian who goes far and beyond the call of duty in making this a place of fun and joy, I award you this barnstar! GlassCobra 22:41, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

My day

Thank you so much my friend! I have been hoping for one for some time now :). I've always enjoyed working with you around here, and I look forward to working with you and seeing you around Wikipedia for some time to come. As always, happy editing! Jmlk17 00:42, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Phaedriel-ness

If nobody wrote to tell you you're cool today, now somebody has! --David Shankbone 01:14, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Semi-protection for the Shia LaBeouf article

Hello Phaedriel. :) Would it be possible for you to semi-protect the Shia LaBeouf article? Various non-registered users have been vandalizing and adding gossip/unsourced information throughout the past weeks, and it's getting bothersome to revert/edit. :-| Thanks for your time! :) --SilentAria ^talk 05:02, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for responding so fast! :D --SilentAria ^talk 09:26, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Good Morning!

You are an angel, truly!

		Ariel's Angel of the Day
		I think you probably know why. ~*~Hugs~*~ Ariel♥Gold

^Ariel♥Gold 10:21, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I cannot tell you how much it means to see your wonderful gifts, my dear. Thank you so much for the beautiful poem and message, and for your taking care of things (even when I don't know it till later, lol), I hope you know how much that means to me. ^Ariel♥Gold 10:31, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Color scheme and userpage

Thanks! :D But I really can't take credit for the color scheme since I got it from a website. :p And sure, feel free to tweak my userpage if you like; you are more familiar with userpage customization than I am, after all! :D --SilentAria ^talk 11:20, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

William Wilberforce

Thanks for the semi proection, however in the past user:Artikalflex has been the prime mover of the content insertion, although he does now seem to be restricting himself to the talkpage (though who knows if the IPs have any direct relationship to him). In part in requesting full-protection I was hoping to ensure that any further changes would have to be thrashed out on talk first - whislt the propsed changes go way off the deep-end, there is a strong case for pointing out the full complexities of Wilberforce's character - he was very reactionary in many ways, despite his support for abolition. I want to try to avoid the accusation of "white-wash" (if that's not too unfortunate a choice of words in the circumstances). I've been thinking of putting a note about the situation on AN/I, but perhaps you could keep the article on your watchlist, and "referee" to some extent, and maybe counsel Artikalflex (it also appears to be the same person who made the off-wiki posting) a little on the Wikipedia way (I've tried to point him in the direction of some of the relevant policies, but I suspect he sees me too much as an adversary to note what I'm saying)? Thanks, David Underdown 12:30, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

RFA's

I am glad to see you are active in RFA's. I was looking back at your RFA, and holy %$#^. 271 supports, and 10 co.noms! I hope that if I try adminship, and I can be like that. Yea right, but I hope. Anyway, just for the thanks on my page I give you this....

Greeting again, User:R:128.40.76.3 is back as 128.40.76.3, see Special:Contributions/128.40.76.3, for vandalism and hoaxage, User:Pjgray1... Pete.Hurd 18:02, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Aye, will keep an eye out then, Cheers. Pete.Hurd 01:11, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

User:Dreadfulwater

Hey Phaedriel, is there any way you could check out this user, and the actions they've been taking on Rita Coolidge, Douglas Blue Feather, and Native American flute? Two of us have been removing the controversial unsourced claims, and given several warnings to quit adding them, but with no response nor respite. I don't want to fall into 3RR territory, though I think this user already has. Thanks! Murderbike 00:20, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Funny how troubles can bring people together, eh? Well, I've got Rita Coolidge on my watchlist, and User:Katr(uh, some numbers go here) has been doing a good job of keeping up with the additions as well. I'll let ya know if it picks up after the 24-hour block is up. Cheers! Murderbike 00:03, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Help

I may need your help. I'm still having a hard time with the code. Zenlax 5:52, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

race

no objection to your protecting it, but you did not protect it at the highest level ... yet the protection template you added suggests the highest level of protection. I suggest you either raise the level of protection, or change the template. Slrubenstein | Talk 14:30, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Desinicize

Thanks for redirecting De-sinicization. I listed Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Desinicize for deletion since a consensus after five days of discussion will give me and others more tools to bring this edit war under control. Thanks. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 15:09, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

User:PalestineRemembered

new AN/I here - [1]. please participate. Jaakobou^{Chalk Talk} 17:04, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

So instructive...

By just sitting back and watching the experts at work, I learn so much [2]. Cheers! -- Flyguy649 ^talk _contribs 17:51, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

May I suggest

Protecting the talk page from editing as well? Thanks Phaedriel! :) ~Eliz81^(C) 18:04, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

• I indef semi-protected it. Feel free to adjust accordingly. -- Flyguy649 ^talk _contribs 18:10, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Hooray for valiant admins! thanks Flyguy :) ~Eliz81^(C) 18:23, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

You folks are all awesome ;) Eliz, I hope you're watching closely, 'coz there'll be an exam on this :) (and you get to see what kinda nonsense gets thrown at admins) - Alison ^❤ 19:45, 14 September 2007 (UTC) (PS: Anyone see where I left my meds? :) )

Ouch! sorry I logged off right after that unpleasant event, so thanks for watching our backs, dear FlyGuy - and keep vigilant, dear Eliz! Nobody messes with our Allie ;) Phaedriel - 19:47, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

The MONGO-cowstar

Adieu, Adieu, to yeu and yeu and yeu!

Weekend thought

Here is a thought for you to contemplate as you ease into your weekend:

Wikipedia is the ladle that helps us drink from the fountain of knowledge.[3]

This might be used for those people who do not use references (the ladle) and post their original thoughts on Wikipedia as though their thoughts are the fountain of knowledge for other to drink. Maybe it sounds better as Wikipedia is nothing more than the ladle that helps us drink from the fountain of knowledge. Enjoy! -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 22:24, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your quote. That will come in handy. Best. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 22:46, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

RFA Thanks

I'm usually not officially a wikilove kind of guy...

...but lately I'm having a kind of a weird phase. So I just thought of you and what a nice person you are. In short:

23:51, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

In addition to that: Thanks for providing inspirations for my new user/talk page layout. — [ aldebaer⁠] 00:31, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm am OH SO JEALOUS

It was Sebi day back in July :O What prejudice does your calendar have against me :P Dihydrogen Monoxide (H₂O) 00:55, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for the special day! <blushing> You are too kind. I hope all is well with you. You are one strong person, and a very special one at that. Love, - Jeeny ^Talk 01:01, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Boink!

*boing...boing...boing* (The sound of new mail in your inbox :D) Love, Neranei (talk) 02:09, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Wow!! That's coincidental! (That's happened to me a few times...) Love, Neranei (talk) 02:31, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Userpage design

Can you design my userpage whenever you have a chance? I know you are taking heavy requests right now, and since you have such an awesome user page, can you remodel my user page if you have time? Thanks in advance!--PrestonH 03:55, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

P.S. Please respond to my talk page whenever please. :)

I'd hoped you'd notice!

Yeah, very good break, recharged my batteries, let me put distance between me and all the boring death threats you get when you do image deletions!

It actually feels very good to be back! Hope everything's okay with you and yours. Love as always ➔ This is REDVEЯS 11:56, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

YAY, he's back! YAY! Miranda 17:37, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Smile

Well, heck, you seem to get a glut of these, but I thought I'd throw another at you. I was looking over your contribs and you have to be one of the warmest, most welcoming admins I've met yet. And no, that's not simple flattery. I like to think of it as articulate flattery. Cheers! Into The Fray ^T/C 20:54, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

My userpage

Thank you, my dear, for the update to my userpage for awards and gifts! I so appreciate your willing gift of your talents, both to me and to so many others. - Philippe | Talk 00:04, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Question For Ya

Hey Phaedriel, if you aren't too busy, would you mind taking a look at my userbox section of my userpage. I want the size of the "category" boxes (ie: current mood, about me, etc) to be the same size as the "category" boxes for my content section (ie: Articles I've Started as SVRTVDude, etc) and in the same color (that cool orange).

I tried myself, but I keep getting that blue on the userbox section mixed with the orange. Since you rock at userpages, I figure you could knock that out in 2mins flat :)....of course if you have the time and it's no rush what-so-ever. Many thanks ahead of time. Take Care and Enjoy Your Weekend....NeutralHomer ^T:C 00:12, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Many thanks:)...and let's go with the former instead of the latter :o). Take Care....NeutralHomer ^T:C 14:25, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Random thought

Dear Phaedriel, I'm glad that we've started crossing paths now. I knew of you and had seen your contributions, as you're well known on here for your kindness and Wikilove. But I just wanted to say, I had no idea you were so frickin' funny! You've made me LOL multiple times with comments you've made. That's quite a rare and special combo you got going on there. I look forward to more laughter :) *hugs* ~Eliz81^(C) 00:22, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Wow! Goodness, I'm nearly speechless. That was very kind of you, and I do believe my cheeks reddened a little reading that! You certainly have a way with words. You are a one-woman morale booster on here, that's for sure. Did you also notice I added my 'soundtrack' to your user page? Living proof that I am stuck in the 80s. Take care dear Phaedriel, sending warm fuzzy thoughts to you and and your daughter :) All the best, ~Eliz81^(C) 23:32, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Re:Hirohisat's Day

Hello dear Phaedriel,

When I first looked at your message, it freaked me out a bit, thinking of the fact that I never thought I was a Awesome Wikipedian. Anyways, thanks for your message (Sorry I don't know how to use English well like Agueybana and Anonymous Diss.), and I really appreciate it! Cheers!, --Hirohisat ^Kiwi 00:22, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

P.S. I'm sorry my message is not poetic at all and "English". I better get on with my English textbook...

email

you said to watch for email - I've been watching and not seen any from you. — Timotab ^{Timothy (not Tim dagnabbit!)} 03:36, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for Shalom's Day!

I enjoyed the funky colorful box you left for me, and the poem by Naomi Shemer. It came just in time for Rosh Hashanah. Best regards, Shalom ^Hello 15:39, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

One thing...

You haven't added me on your list of user page designs yet. The Mystery Editor OK, fine. I'm Jonathan! 16:25, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Smile

Thanks very much! :) It made me smile, and I hope you have reason to do so today as well. Orderinchaos 17:52, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Can you join my mailing list?

I have a Wikipedia Update newsletter (weekly) and as of now I only have one person on my mail list. Can you please help me out and get some people you know on to my mailing list? Anyway, thanks! The Mystery Editor OK, fine. I'm Jonathan! 18:06, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

PS I would like you to tell me the info here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonathan (talk • contribs) 18:12, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

A smile for you

My dear P, hope you and your daughter are both well. Missing you too, back from wikibreak in 1 week hopefully. Sent from phone, hence short message. See you when I'm back! Love, umdrums 18:25, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

a request

Hi Phaedriel, could you please leave me a message on my talk page? It doesn't matter what you say; I'm just trying out a different browser and I would like to know what my custom new message bar looks like with it. Thanks! --Kyoko 22:35, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Phaedriel, I got your poem, and all I can say is WOW! Did you write that yourself? That's very good! I wasn't expecting you to do anything special, but thank you very much! I feel very honoured that you did all that!

I will be sending you an e-mail sometime later today. Love, Kyoko 13:43, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Message sent! --Kyoko 14:15, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
